Azirox Suspension 200 mg/5 ml contains Azithromycin Dihydrate, a broad-spectrum macrolide antibiotic used for the treatment of various bacterial infections in children and adults who prefer liquid dosage forms. It is effective against a wide range of gram-positive, gram-negative, and atypical bacteria.

Azithromycin works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, thereby stopping bacterial growth and multiplication. It binds to the 50S ribosomal subunit of susceptible bacteria, leading to a reduction in infection and improvement of symptoms.

This oral suspension is especially suitable for pediatric patients due to its easy dosing, palatable formulation, and short treatment duration, ensuring better compliance.
